Common poker tells, from poker expert Mike Caro

Mike Caro's Book of Poker Tells

It’s a long weekend, so what better reason to ring in the New Year by getting together with your buddies for a late night of cigar smoking and poker playing?

But before you do, you might want to read up a little bit on how to recognize a “poker tell” – that is, those silent signs that your poker opponents aroung the table give off when they have a good or bad hand.

Some of these little ticks are done on purpose – players think that they can indicate whether they have a worse hand than they actually do by doing or saying something to throw you off the scent.  Other tells are things your body does whether you realize it or not.

How to Dress Properly

We all know that proper grooming is important to succeed in the workplace.

Web Watch knows a few men with (shall we say…) less than admirable shower and clothes-washing habits.

One situation arose where a co-worker had to be taken aside and be told explicitly to go home and shower.  It was an uncomfortable conversation, but it had to be done.  You could smell him coming from down the hall.  Web Watch shudders just remembering the stench, it was that bad.

7 Things that millionaires do that you can do too

Many years ago, Web Watch thought that we knew we had enough money if other people considered us to be “peculiar”.

As we got older, we determined that being “peculiar” wasn’t good enough — we knew that we had enough money if other people considered us to be “eccentric” instead.

The question that Web Watch still has to answer is how to we get enough money to even be thought of as “odd”, since we’re nowhere close to having “odd” enough money.
